  • The most expensive neighborhood in the US was Indian Creek Village.

  • The private island is home to a number of famous people.

  • I was given a tour of the high-security enclave and saw why it's called theBillionaire Bunker.

Indian Creek Village has only a few dozen homes, but it still has its own mayor and government.

You need to be a resident to enter the island. Security at the gate scanned my driver's license before allowing us through.

The Indian Creek Village Police headquarters is on the left side of the island's entrance.

The island is secured by 13 full time police officers.

I was told that a laser beam security system would be put in place around the island's coast.

On the other side of the bridge, I was dropped off by my driver. A policeman stopped and asked who I was waiting for while I was waiting for Dina.

Construction workers were the only other people on the street. Several homes, including a mansion purchased by President Donald Trump's daughter and son-in-law, were under construction.

I was surprised to learn that buying property in Indian Creek doesn't guarantee you admission to the golf club.

According to Page Six, local residents told Donald Trump's daughter and son-in-law they didn't need to apply to the club after buying a $30 million home.

The country club was accused of discrimination in the early 2000s. The club denied the accusations.

The Wall Street Journal reported on the story.

The club is the only thing on the island. Indian Creek Road is the only street in the area.

Goldentayer said there was no action here. You are 10 minutes away from the action.

Private docks were found in most of the homes. There is no direct beach access in this neighborhood.

Goldentayer said that some residents own or rent additional properties on Miami's mainland, such as the $18.6 million rental condo owned by Ivanka andJared.
